What is deep but another word? And what is a word? Tell me.

This section is titled deep thoughts. Well I ask you, define for me the word deep. What does it mean? And I don�t want you to look it up in the dictionary. What does it really MEAN? Is it really just a word that we humans have given meaning to? Is it really merely something that we, as people, have taken to interpreting in the same way? More then likely. And although each person brings to the table a slightly different interpretation of the word based on their own experience�is it not still but a feeling that we all know to one extent or another.

Some people say that being deep is being spiritual or being in tune with who you are and your place in the universe. Some people think it�s deep to discuss religion over a pepperoni pizza. Deep is in itself just like every other word. Just like every other idea. It is something that we, as a people, as a race, have come to accept. It is something that we believe means something else. But why? Is it merely curiosity or a deeper desire? Is it merely a word or the collective embodiment of so much more? Does it symbolize to one person what it symbolizes to another? Does anyone really understand?

I don�t think so. Humans may be one race. They may deep down inside of their shells and bodies and masks of personality be a primitive being�but what else are they? Are they more? Are we more? Or do we only wish to be more? To be set apart from the animals as we call them? Are we truly any different or is our lie really that we strive to be what we are not? We here in this forum call ourselves nerds. We label ourselves with a word that other people bring meaning to. Some good. Some bad. But we use it in our own way, and each of us believes that it means something different then the person before.

If one word, one label, can describe so many people on so many different levels, is it really only one word? Or one word that means so much more? Sure we put definitions behind things, but do we use them? The world is not black and white. Words do not have one meaning. And in my opinion the word deep is ridicules. Should I speak of philosophy? Or religion? Or of my favorite type of cheesecake? Seriously now�you want me to be deep? You want others to be deep? Tell us what deep is! What do you think deep is? Tell me. I�m listening. Intently.
